Miami Horror

Today to present to you my second Aussie artist; Miami Horror. Some of you may have noticed them in the Jukebox and you may have heard Prez expressing his disappointment in the Shoutbox when he was unable to see them live. Well sorry Prez, I have seen them live and I loved them. Miami Horror is the work of one Mr. Benjamin Plant, an electronic music producer from Melbourne. Their earlier productions can be defined as somewhat hard electro backed by soft, melodious synths that give the tracks an almost spacey and futuristic theme. Whereas their newer productions, most notably ‘Sometimes’ averts its focus from the hard and narrows in on the soft. Miami Horror has a new album due on 20th August, and from album previews it appears as if they are continuing on this new softer theme.

Earlier Productions (Bravado EP):

Illumination is a great example of their hard electro style. Also, the album due out on the 2th is also titled Illumination (No doubt after this track) so its surprising that what I’ve heard so far strays so far from this harder theme.

Make You Mine is currently in the Jukebox, but I thought I’d draw more focus to this track and offer a download link. This track is very groovy, and quite different in contrast to Illumination or Summerfest.

Sometimes was released as a single, but is featuring on the Illumination album. This is pretty much the song that skyrocketed them to success. I also LOVE the filmclip. Its not really anything epicly special about it, its just beautiful.
